Do Now • Sit down and start to fill out the vocabulary organizer with any words that you know. This will be for homework.
The Chemistry of Carbon • Carbon is the element of life • Able to bond to many different elements • Bonds to other carbons to form very long carbon chains
Macromolecules • “Giant Molecules” • Macromolecules are made from thousands of smaller molecules combined
Macromolecules • “Giant Molecules” • Macromolecules are made from thousands of smaller molecules combined • Monomer + monomer = polymer
Monomer- single molecule • Polymer- very large unit of molecules made by joining monomers together • “Poly” = many • “Mono” = single
Monomer- single molecule • Polymer- very large unit of molecules made by joining monomers together Macromolecules are polymers!!!!
Monomer Polymer Many joined together Just one
4 Main Macromolecules • Carbohydrates • Lipids • Nucleic Acids • Proteins • Each of these are polymers made from linking smaller units together
PAUSE. • What is a macromolecule? • What do “mono” and “poly” mean? • What is a monomer? • What is a polymer?
Carbohydrates • Compounds made of: carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. • Used for: Living things use carbohydrates as their main source of energy. • Monomer:Monosaccharides • Example: Sugars
Carbohydrates • Compounds made of: carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. • Used for: Living things use carbohydrates as their main source of energy. • Monomer:Monosaccharides • Example: Sugars
Monomer- Monosaccharide • “simple sugar”
Monomer- Monosaccharide • “simple sugar” • Polymer- Polysaccharide • “complex sugar” • Starches are polysaccharides, or complex sugars, that animals use to store long term energy.
Lipids • Compounds made from: Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen • Used for: Energy storage, protective layers • Made from: Fatty Acids • Examples: Fats, Oils, Waxes, Steroids
Lipids are not soluble in water • Lipids do not dissolve in water
PAUSE. • What do we use carbohydrates for ? • What are the monomers of carbohydrates called? • What are the monomers of Lipids called? • What are lipids used for?
Nucleic Acid • Compounds made from: Hydrogen, Carbon, Oxygen, Nitrogen, Phosphorus • Used for: Store hereditary, or genetic information. • Monomer: Nucleotides • Example: DNA
Proteins • Compounds made from: Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen, Nitrogen • Used for: Chemical Reactions • Monomer: Amino acids • Example: Enzymes
PAUSE. • What are the monomers of Nucleic acids? • What do living things use nucleic acids for? • What are the monomers of Proteins called? • What is protein needed to make?
Monomer- Nucleic acid Polymer- ???
Polymer- Protein • Monomer????
Polymer- Nucleic Acid • Monomer- ???????????
Monomer- Fatty acids • Polymer- ???????
Monomer- Monosaccharides • Polymer-???????
Polymer- Lipids • Monomer- ?????????
